Creating PMTiles with the -pC still creates gzipped metadata

[CraigglesO]

Title says it all, using PMTiles default example with the -pC flag included:

tippecanoe -pC -zg --projection=EPSG:4326 -o cb_2018_us_zcta510_500k_nolimit.pmtiles -l zcta cb_2018_us_zcta510_500k.json

I don't plan on supporting browser managed deflate, so it would be cool to ensure the metadata and directories is not gzipped by default either.

in PMTiles the compression for tiles is specified independently of directories/metadata, so this is working as intended.

PMTiles clients are expected to have access to a decompressor, whether that's built-in DecompressionStream or https://github.com/101arrowz/fflate

Ah, so I am using fflate currently and it's pretty cheap which is nice, but I guess what I'm saying is I'd like the ability to use tippecanoe and add a flag that doesn't allow compression at all including PMTiles metadata. If tippecanoe doesn't want to do this though that's fine, it would just be a good feature for me.
